New Course: Behavioural Finance
Irrational behaviours can be among the most difficult behaviours to deal with. People exhibiting irrationality tend to focus on their own way of thinking rather than a more predictable mindset. This irrational mindset can have negative consequences for a person’s life and investments. Luckily, there are ways to bring an irrational person back to a rational mindset. As an investment advisor, it is your job to identify these behaviours and then correct them. Client irrationality, left unchecked, can wreak havoc on an investment portfolio.
